What to do when HE won’t spend a dime on you?

Dear Susie,

My boyfriend and I have been dating for two years and as time goes on I’m finding myself more frustrated than ever. At the beginning of our relationship he didn’t have a steady job and I’d often be the one to pay for our nights out on the town. Although my bank account was diminishing, I still felt satisfied- he treated me well and showered me with an abundance of very thoughtful (and cost-effective) “gifts”. He’s been working for a solid year and I haven’t seen much improvement. I’m still the breadwinner and his thoughtfulness is pretty well nonexistent. I can’t help but feel resentful- he seems to always find the money to buy himself expensive things but can never afford my movie ticket. I feel kind of selfish but I’m a full time college student and cannot afford to keep doing this. Please help!

On-her-last-straw- Stephanie

Susie gave Stephanie the advise(check the link) but if you were Stephanie, what would you do?

It's fine to give, but to ALWAYS give??? Noooooooooo waayyyyyyyyy ;p

My advice is to stop spending time and dimes on him. Spend them on me instead, and I will match you dime for dime. : )

Its best u end this relationship while u still can, Im not saying it coz of the lack of gifts but men who accept and never give will always remain that way, They adopt a very dependent attitude , thereon theres no turning back,, they continue to be the same after marriage as well, u can neva change em. Ur lucky u still have time, so just quit and look around for more deserving ppl, remember love is a two way thing, u deserve to be treated well too.

Why is that Olive.. Getting wiser with every exprience? lol

On a serious note. I could never be in a relationship if I did not spend on her. Would only accept gifts on special occassions from her, but living off her.. Nah..just not me..:)
